Deportation today Nuba from Netherlands to Khartoum has been cancelled

We are relieved to tell you that the deportation today of a Nuba man 
from Netherlands to Khartoum has been cancelled.

A lot has been done:
- a very vivid social media campaign towards the state secretary and the 
airline companies took place.
- members of parliament from different parties stated their concern and 
asked the state secretary to cancel the deportation, referring to the 
situation in Sudan and the high risks, together with the request to 
re-evaluate the asylum application.
- Amnesty International raised concerns as well against the planned 
deportation and wrote a letter.
- the asylum-lawyer started a new asylum procedure based on new facts 
and evidence.

This morning we got the news that the IND (Immigration and 
Naturalisation Services) will take the time to look at the renewed 
asylum procedure and the deportation was therefore cancelled.

Thanks everybody for making this a successful campaign!

In solidarity with everybody that faces the risk to be deported, freedom 
of movement for all!
